12 oz brown bottle from the Beer Store in Moon for $2. Cloudy light yellow with brown thin white head with a tinge of brown. Looks good, yeast particles mysteriously spinning around if poured properly. Pop the lid for a yeasty beer aroma with alky citrus background hints. Good hefe wheat like taste but stronger as far as alky goes, compared to a gentleman wit. More like a hefe not wit. White wheat beer flavor is strong. Good creamy carbonation fizz on the throat. Some medium building bitterness does seem to come across on the finish. A little more offensive personality than I am used to with a mild wit. Overall, good but may not be easily repeatable considering the high alky personality. I think this may be below the average of wits flavors that I have tasted, however, those who like high alky brews will appreciate this representation of the style. Finish is lasting medium bitterness on the back of the throat. Nice rendition of an otherwise strong brew.

12 Oz Bottle. Gift from Adam (Thanks Pitel). This belgian witbier is very good. The aroma had a hint of malt, very nice with beautiful notes of orange and curacao - played by a flute. The finish was a citric spicy one. Higher alc content as well, which was unnoticeable. pure player. SECOND TRY 2/27/09. Body definitely not as epic as initially thought. Taste is great - smooth delicious, refreshing.

This is easily the best Wit I have ever had. True to form, this is like Hoegaarden on steriods. It works though, it works really well. Awesome beer. Southhampton has yet to let me down.

A tremendous effort. This brew takes everything that is great about the wit bier style and doubles it, without eve rsacrificing the drinkability. The coriander and Curacao notes are there in heavy doses, the towering white head, and milky maize color, heavy lacing, and all the qualities that make a great wit beer are wholly intact. The only real differences are slightly heavier mouthfeel and a mildly apparent alcohol content. Could be a session beer, but that % will creep up on you.

Meh. Nothing about this beer is memorable. Flavor didn’t really impress me. I tried to finish it quickly.

Draught at Brazen Head. Hazy gold colored with a dissolving white head. Initial aroma like a banana bread bomb, which mellowed to a light bread malty, lemony yeast scent. Citrus peel , spice and lemon notes permeate the off-sweet bready/cakey malt flavor. Smooth full body with lively carbonation. Pretty good.
